10、nancial Services Assurance,KPMG ChinaSince the beginning of 2023,we have seen choppy waters around the world,including a global energy crisis,rising inflation,geopolitical tensions,and uncertain economic prospects in China and overseas.Banks around the world are also facing these challenges.In this
11、context,one important factor that bank executives should consider is whether their banks are developing and implementing strategies that will help them navigate turbulence and quickly adapt.Fortunately,in general,we see positive signs in the domestic banking sectors 2023 Q1 operating indicators,whic
12、h show that the sector has maintained a high growth rate in scale and steadily recovered its profitability,while demonstrating sound asset quality and capital adequacy.Under the guidance of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China,the path for social and economic development in Chi
13、na is clearer,and the environment will be more conducive to the steady development of the banking industry.Nonetheless,going forward,macroeconomic uncertainty and instability are expected to persist,and banks will be subject to more stringent regulation,which will present challenges in terms of shor
14、t-term performance,long-term operating capabilities,the need to cope with future market and policy changes,and efforts to unlock new paths for development.In this report,we provide a general summary of the opportunities and challenges facing Chinas banking sector in the new era from a macro perspect
15、ive.In the coming years,we hope that banks will cultivate future-proof business and development models that focus on creating value,improving operational resilience,and responding effectively to risks.By following this path,they will be able to successfully adapt in a changing world and climb to new
16、 heights of prosperity.The world is undergoing profound changes of a scale unseen in a century.The economic and financial sectors are seeing rising global resource allocation costs,tightening liquidity,pressing financial risks and other new challenges.In this context,Chinas banking industry has show
17、n strong resilience,underpinned by the determination and skill of the countrys financial regulators.According to the requirements and expectations for financial regulation in the 14th Five-Year Plan and the Long-Range Objectives Through the Year 2035,enhanced financial risk management has been made
18、the top priority for the banking industry.On 18 May 2023,the National Administration of Financial Regulation(NAFR)was officially set up,marking a new milestone in financial regulation.In 2023,banking regulation is expected to continue to be stringent,and regulatory policies will continue to encourag
19、e commercial banks to expand support for small and micro enterprises,technological innovation,green development and other sectors,with a view to forming a virtuous cycle between financial services and the real economy.While preparing the 2023 Survey Report,we learned that decision-makers in the sect
20、or are pursuing comprehensive risk management,refined management,and integrated management of risks from various dimensions.They are also implementing the new requirements for differentiated regulation,refined measurement,inclusive orientation and digital transformation in order to adhere to Chinas
21、New Capital Regulations and align with Basel III.Against this backdrop,we held in-depth,forward-looking discussions in an effort to provide analysis that will help the industry explore new opportunities in digitalised and intelligent risk management.2023 KPMG Huazhen LLP,a Peoples Republic of China

25、a In recent years,financial regulators and the former China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission(CBIRC)have released a number of new regulatory policies,including guiding opinions on the Fintech Development Plan and digital transformation.Under these policies,commercial banks are gradually de
26、epening their digital transformation,and focusing their attention on the integration of financial services,business operations,digitalisation,technology-driven initiatives and data empowerment.However,these tasks are easier said than done.Going forward,we need to ask ourselves,how can traditional bu
27、siness models and management models be comprehensively upgraded to promote the transformation of industrial finance and green finance?How can digitalisation strategies be implemented to enable multi-dimensional innovation in bank products,services,business models,risk control and other areas,and how
28、 can we measure productivity management capabilities?How can banks focus on data governance,anti-money laundering(AML)management,business and finance integration,organisational change and talent training,customer experience optimisation,and business scenario innovation to achieve bank value growth?H
29、ow should rural banks improve their corporate governance,internal control,and liquidity risk management and control in the rapidly changing market?These questions are all transformational pain points that banks are finding ways to break through during this critical moment of reform.The report to the
30、 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China mapped out the development blueprint for the country.The banking sector should seize strategic opportunities and the development window to deepen the transformation of technology and finance;upgrade inclusive finance,green finance and wealth fi
31、nance;promote in-depth digital development;and facilitate the comprehensive and high-quality growth of the financial service ecosystem.This report is the 17th annual survey that KPMG has published for Chinas banking industry.This edition provides analysis of Chinas economic and financial conditions,
32、a review of banking development and its outlook going forward,interpretation of regulatory policies,analysis of important topics,and banks performance data.Amid rising uncertainties in the industry,we have invited experts from KPMG Chinas various banking service lines to analyse important issues in
33、depth and provide insights into development trends.Our discussions focus on topics such as digital transformation,sustainability,risk management,data-driven initiatives,and management compliance.From industry best practices and tech development trends,to business scenario innovation,we have shared o
34、ur exclusive insights into the industrys current situation,and provided ideas for innovative solutions.I would like to thank my colleagues who actively participated in our discussions and contributed to the reports publication.We have also illustrated and analysed the individual operating indicators
35、 of 150 listed and non-listed commercial banks in 2022,and analysed their scale of business,profitability,asset quality,capital adequacy and other key indicators in depth to provide a valuable reference for decision-making.Going forward,as professional service providers,we hope to initiate brainstor
36、ming sessions in the industry,integrating resources and views from various sources and across different dimensions.We look forward to holding discussions with industry peers on how breakthroughs can be made in banking business development,with a view to helping the industry make progress and achieve

42、eryIn 2022,Chinas economy grew at a slower pace under the weight of multiple pressures posed by the macroeconomic downturn during the year,and the impact of some of these challenges is still being felt.First,the continued spread of COVID-19 is still having an impact on Chinas economy and society.Sec
43、ond,the real estate market is still soft.In 2022,real estate investment declined for the first time annually,falling 10%year-on-year(YOY)and cutting annual GDP growth by 1.7 percentage points.Third,the Federal Reserve(Fed)s rate hikes have triggered substantial fluctuations in the global economy and
44、 financial markets.To stabilise economic growth,China has taken measures to relax its monetary policy,including cutting interest rates and the required reserve ratio(RRR).In 2022,the widening gap in monetary policy between China and the US increased volatility in Chinas financial market and impacted
45、 the exchange rate and cross-border capital flows.Fourth,geopolitical uncertainty has been intensifying.The Russia-Ukraine conflict has exacerbated global inflation,and trade tensions between China and the US have become the new normal.These challenges combined during the year to deliver a substanti
46、al drag on Chinas GDP,which recorded moderate growth of 3.0%in 2022.China started 2023 with steady economic momentum in the wake of the relaxation of epidemic prevention and control measures.The strong recovery of the service industry,better-than-expected growth in exports and the rebounding real es
47、tate industry jumpstarted the economy in 2023 Q1.China notched YOY growth of 4.5%in 2023 Q1,1.6 percentage points higher than in 2022 Q4.However,we should bear in mind that Chinas economy is still at the early stage of recovery.Consumers still need to regain their confidence in private enterprises;a
48、nd as we observed unbalanced growth across various industries,the foundation of the economic recovery needs to be strengthened.For example,services grew faster than industries,while large corporates performed better than small-and medium-sized enterprises(SMEs).Going forward,the complex internationa
49、l landscape coupled with the downturn in the global economy will likely slacken Chinas export growth.Macroeconomic policies are expected to remain robust in the near future in an effort to fully tap domestic demand and stabilise economic growth.As employment improves,more supporting policies are int
50、roduced and consumption scenarios increase,we expect consumer spending to grow,investment growth to stabilise,and industrial transformation upgrading to continue.These trends should help drive economic momentum,and the lower base in 2022 should also help buoy YOY growth figures for the year.Overall,
51、we expect Chinas economy to expand by 5.7%in 2023.Economic and financial review and outlook1Kevin KangChief EconomistKPMG ChinaRaymond LiPartner,Financial Services(Editor-in-Chief)KPMG China 2023 KPMG Huazhen LLP,a Peoples Republic of China partnership,KPMG Advisory(China)Limited,a limited liability

53、 Mainland.OverviewOverview7 7Under the lingering impact of epidemic prevention and control measures in 2022,industrial production has remained weak due to shortened time spent on production,greater pressure on supply chains and lukewarm market demand.Since January 2023,stabilising policies have help
54、ed revitalise market demand and strengthen industry and supply chains.Industrial production has been steadily returning to normal,with industrial output at Chinas major industrial companies growing 3.0%YOY in 2023 Q1,up 0.2 percentage points from 2022 Q4(Figure 2).However,the recovery in industrial
55、production has been weaker than that seen in services,as output growth of the latter recorded more significant YOY growth of 5.4%in 2023 Q1,up 3.1 percentage points from 2022 Q4.Relatively high inventory levels,the shrinking profitability of industrial enterprises and the global economic slowdown ha
56、ve all contributed to stagnant foreign demand and the dampening of industrial production.Chinas Manufacturing Purchasing Managers Index(PMI)and capacity utilisation rate both recently fell.These latest figures confirm that Chinas economy is still at the early stage of recoveryand that more momentum
57、is needed to boost industrial production.Figure 1 Figure 1 Quarterly GDP growth(%)Quarterly GDP growth(%)Source:Wind and KPMG analysis-10-505101520252010201220142016201820202022Constant pricesCurrent pricesFigure 2 Figure 2 Industrial output and manufacturing PMIIndustrial output and manufacturing P

60、king Survey 2023 Summary8 8Analysis from the three demand perspectives of consumption,investment and foreign trade:As a major driver of economic development in China,consumer spending contributes the most to economic growth.Due to the epidemic and related control policies,total retail sales of consu
61、mer goods decreased 0.2%YOY in 2022,which was notably lower than average growth prior to COVID-19.In terms of consumer goods,in 2022,sales of household goods and daily necessities boomed in light of the decline in spending on contact-based offline services due to the impact of the epidemic.Since the
62、 beginning of 2023,the overall consumption recovery has been solid,as final consumer spending in 2023 Q1 drove economic growth by 3%,representing 66.6%of total economic growth.With the lifting of consumption restrictions and the implementation of policies to encourage consumer spending,retail sales
63、of jewellery,apparel,tobacco and alcohol,cosmetics,sports and recreational goods,and other consumer goods that involve offline social activities grew faster than in the previous year(Figure 3).As catering,tourism and other services gained momentum during the recovery,they became a more significant d
64、river of economic growth.Despite these upward trends,consumption still has a long way to go before it returns to normal.Automotive and housing consumption in particular are in need of a boost.According to the Urban Depositor Survey conducted by the Peoples Bank of China(PBOC)in Q1,18.8%of people wer
65、e inclined to invest more in 2023 Q1,up from 15.5%in 2022 Q4.Meanwhile,the percentage of people inclined to consume more increased only moderately,indicating the various degrees of recovery in residents willingness to invest and consume.As employment gradually picks up,more policies to encourage con
66、sumption become effective and consumption scenarios increase,residents purchasing power and willingness to consume are expected to grow,and we expect more residents to channel their savings to the consumer and investment sectors as the financial market improves.Figure 3Figure 3Source:Wind and KPMG a

70、illars of investmentmanufacturing,infrastructure and real estatemanufacturing and infrastructure investments sustained a steady recovery in 2023 Q1.Meanwhile,as the policy of“ensuring building delivery and stabilising peoples livelihood”takes effect,the downward trend in real estate investment appea
71、rs to have levelled off(Figure 4).In 2023,manufacturing investment has maintained a steady recovery.First,the general recovery of economic activities,the prosperity seen in emerging industries,and other factors have supported the expansion of manufacturing investment.Second,strong export activity in
72、 2023 Q1 also boosted manufacturing investment.In particular,robust exports of new energy vehicles and other electromechanical and high-tech products have encouraged enterprises to expand their capital expenditure.Third,supportive policies continued to guide the manufacturing industry in its pursuit
73、 of high-quality development,while also boosting investment confidence.Macroeconomic policies have also been stepped up to ensure that infrastructure investment continues to expand and stabilise economic growth.Due to tighter cash flows and negative market sentiment,real estate investment has still
74、not pulled out of the downturn that began in 2022,during which time investment in real estate development on a national basis notched a YOY decline of 10%,the first decline investment in real estate development in its history.Since the second half of 2022,the government has introduced an array of po
75、licies to stabilise the market from both the demand side and supply side.Recently,policies to“ensure building delivery and stabilise peoples livelihood”have been made more vigorous,and in 2023 Q1,building area completed increased by 14.7%YOY.However,during the same period,new construction starts by
76、surface area tumbled 19.2%compared to 2022 Q1 figures.In 2023 Q1,total real estate development investment amounted to RMB 2.5 trillion,representing a YOY decline of 5.8%,and confirming that the real estate market is still adjusting and recovering.On the other hand,real estate sales figures presented
77、 a sunnier picture,largely because rigid demand that was delayed and accumulated last year due to the impact of the epidemic,as well as demand for improved housing,was tapped in 2023 Q1.Combined with the continuous easing of real estate control policies,total commercial housing area sold on a nation
78、al basis reached 300 million square metres in 2023 Q1,representing a YOY growth reduced by 1.8%,which was a significantly slower decline compared to the figure recorded at the end of 2022.As a leading indicator of the real estate market,strong sales will have a positive impact on new construction st
79、arts by surface area and investment for some time to come,and for this reason we expect to see a modest recovery in the real estate market for the rest of the year.Figure 4 Figure 4 Monthly moving weighted average fixed asset investment by sector(%)Monthly moving weighted average fixed asset investm

82、3 Summary1010Amid the implementation of different policies for epidemic prevention and relief within and outside China over the last three years,China has seized the opportunity brought by increased foreign demand by leveraging its complete supply chain and manufacturing advantages,and as a result,t
83、he country has seen substantial growth in exports,which have become the main engine driving Chinas economic growth.From 2022 Q1 to Q3,the cumulative YOY contribution of net exports to GDP exceeded 30%,the highest figure recorded in the past two decades.Foreign demand,however,was sluggish in 2022 Q4,
84、as the global economy took a turn for the worse.In 2023 Q1,China registered rapid growth of 8.5%in exports,which was significantly higher than the 0.9%figure recorded for the first two months.The quarterly figure jumped mainly because YOY monthly growth reached 23.4%in March,much higher than expecta
85、tions(Figure 5).Chinas export figures show that the countrys export structure is upgrading,as commodities for export are shifting towards those produced by high-end manufacturing and equipment manufacturing.In particular,high-tech flagship exports include electric vehicles,lithium-ion batteries and
86、solar batteries,with total exports of these three products surging by 66.9%in 2023 Q1,representing a YOY increase of RMB 100 billion and driving overall export growth by 2%.In short,new commodities are playing an increasingly important role in promoting Chinas exports.Despite stagnant demand in deve
87、loped economies,Chinas exports to countries participating in the Belt and Road initiative,members of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership(RCEP),and other emerging markets are still soaring.Chinas exports to ASEAN members rose by 28%YOY in 2023 Q1,with March exports in particular hitting a
88、 monthly record high of RMB 385.2 billion.Going forward,we expect to see strong export growth in 2023 Q2 due to the relatively lower base in 2022 Q2.However,Chinas exports will still face a certain degree of pressure in the second half of 2023 as rising inflation in developed economies and heightene

92、266.4 trillion,representing YOY growth of 11.8%.Aggregate financing reached RMB 32 trillion in 2022,which reflected a modest increase of RMB 668.9 billion from 2021.The increase in aggregate financing moderated in 2022 to a YOY growth rate of 9.6%under the combined impact of multiple factors,includi
93、ng epidemic control measures,the lukewarm capital market,and a lower risk appetite among investors.In 2023 Q1,aggregate financing amounted to RMB 14.5 trillion,representing an increase of RMB 2.5 trillion or 10%compared to 2022 Q1.Aggregate financing regained its momentum in 2023 Q1 as the economy r
94、eturned to normal in the wake of the epidemic,enterprises accelerated resumption of work and production,and market demand for financing increased in February and March(Figure 6).In terms of monetary supply,M2 increased by 12.7%YOY in Q1,which can be attributed to three factors.First,revived credit e
95、xpansion in 2023 Q1 magnified the deposit multiplier effect.Second,funds from treasury products such as wealth management were returned to banks as risk appetites in the real economy dampened.And third,funds were released from the RRR cut,in combination with the introduction of fiscal policy support
96、.Each of these factors helped drive an increase in the broad measure of the money supply.Figure 6 Figure 6 Aggregate financing balance and M2 growth(%)Aggregate financing balance and M2 growth(%)Source:Wind and KPMG analysis68101214161820162017201820192020202120222023Aggregate financing balance YOY

101、edit support for infrastructure,manufacturing and real estate development,with an extra boost from the sustained economic recovery.At the end of March,the balance of medium-and long-term manufacturing loans had grown by 41.2%YOY,while medium-and long-term infrastructure loans had increased by 15.2%Y
102、OY,both outperforming loan growth in all other sectors.Short-term corporate loans have also been growing,with new loans as at the end of March amounting to RMB 1 trillion,as they acted as a substitute for bill financing.In terms of personal lending,medium-and long-term personal loans remained sluggi

108、RMB 9.9 trillion,reflecting a YOY increase of RMB 2 trillion(Figure 8).Usually,enterprises pay salaries,rewards and bonuses on the eve of the Spring Festival,providing an important source of new deposits in January.On the other hand,amid the disappointing performance of both the stock and real estat
109、e markets,residents have generally been saving more and approaching investments more conservatively.Notably,residents new deposits increased by about RMB 205.1 billion YOY in March,in contrast to the sharp increase of RMB 1.8 trillion in the previous two months.Going forward,we expect a certain amou
110、nt of savings to be channelled to the consumption and investment sectors as precautionary savings are spent in light of improving economic fundamentals.In addition,deposits of non-financial enterprises increased by RMB 3.18 trillion in 2023 Q1,indicating that corporate loan demand has continuously g

121、.9%faster than that in 2022 Q1.The protection of peoples livelihood was still the main focus of government expenditure,accounting for 42%of the total.We should point out that local governments have been facing increasing pressure in making debt interest payments.Debt interest payments amounted to RM
122、B 230.9 billion in 2023 Q1,representing YOY growth of 15.9%.In this context,local governments need to further optimise the structure of their debt maturities,reduce their interest payment burden,curb new debts and repay existing ones.In the context of monetary policy,in 2023 Q1,China adhered to a po
123、licy of prioritising economic stability while pursuing progress.Going forward,the country will continue to provide robust support for key areas from both a volume and structural perspective.In terms of volume,on 17 March,the PBOC announced that it was cutting the RRR by 25 basis points for all banks
124、,to replenish banks medium-and long-term liquidity and reinforce the foundation of the economic recovery.Structurally,the PBOC continued to use structural monetary policy tools to encourage financial institutions to strengthen financial services for inclusive finance,technological SMEs and technolog
125、ical innovation sectors and to boost the countrys economic growth potential.At the end of March 2023,the PBOC was using 17 structural monetary policy tools,which carried a balance of RMB 6.8 trillion,up RMB 400 billion from the balance at the end of 2022.Since the beginning of 2023,The banking secto
126、rs in the US and Europe have come under increased pressure due to rising interest rates and interest rate risk is now peoples top concern.China has implemented a highly autonomous monetary policy over the last few years,which has resulted in relatively stable interest rates and controllable overall
127、risk.Going forward,the PBOC will continue enacting a robust monetary policy to ensure that monetary and credit growth are steady and interest rates are appropriate,and the central bank still has the option to cut the RRR and interest rates in the future if needed.Meanwhile,the PBOC will continue to
128、fully leverage the guiding role of structural monetary policy tools and channel more financial resources to key areas such as private small and micro enterprises,technological innovation and green development.Last year,policy-based financial instruments effectively supported the expansion of infrast

307、sses in financial investments(Figure 29).The volatility of the stock and debt markets in 2022 impacted the valuation of equity instruments and triggered unrealised losses for bond investments,which led to net losses from changes in fair value.Specifically,changes in fair value at the six state-owned
308、 banks plunged by 163%or RMB 72.1 billion YOY to RMB-27.9 billion;joint-stock commercial banks notched the most significant YOY decline of 204%,as their changes in fair value fell to RMB-14.8 billion;and city commercial banks recorded RMB 1.1 billion in changes in fair value,representing a somewhat
309、milder YOY decrease of 85%.The changes in fair value generally had a negative impact on listed banks,but some of them were quick to seize opportunities presented by capital market trends and fluctuations,and a few even generated floating profits in financial investments.Going forward,banks should st
